Revolution Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 As you know, the Indo-European people migrated and spread all over Eurasia. Many peoples and languages descend from this migration event. But do you speak a language that does not descend from this one language? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pendulum Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Only Indo-European languages. Though I'd love to learn a non-IE language in my lifetime. Something Finno-Ugric maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planet Mars Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Yes, but that's because my parents were born and raised in Cameroon. Most Africans still speak their tribal languages. So yes, the family is Bantu (ancestrally from East Africa), which is spoken throughout most of Western and Central Africa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planet Mars Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 I also speak Pidgin English, which is a broken English dialect spoken throughout most of West/Central Africa in different forms. To those of us raised around it, it's pretty easy to pick out the English in it, to Americans and British people though, it probably sounds like a completely different language. Even though I usually sound like your typical West Hollywood gay , when I speak it I immediately fall into an accent, you'd think I just got here from Lagos, it's the versatility for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
